Mr Wood (woodwork) who was replaced by Mr Whittle
Mr Moses and Mr Shepherd (RI)
Mrs Burns (HE)
Mr French (English)
Mrs English (French)
and of course the nurse was
Mrs Payne

was I just lucky?

There was a teacher in my middle school named Miss Dudah (as in oh, doo-dah day), who married a guy named Mr. Wack0ff. Now that's going from bad to worse.

In my university, there was a grad student in theater whose last name was Shakespeare, a guy in literature named Tom Jones, and come to think of it, there was a girl who was in film with me named Hitchcock.
